the BundleA Poem by ang03207i wrote this about a man who loves the cold and lives too far away.
If I could,
I'd bundle you up in a flake of snow and send you North from the blow of my rough skin you will someday find yourself sinking in. What dreams of chilled touches you so long for. I see a burning flame inside your stomach flooding a foggy dense forest that waits quietly for light to peek it's head in and say, "hi, I'm holding on for dear life." Your dear countenance I behold, yet have not noticed. Except for in a fleeting moment I made up, which is not the point. The point is, my dear, the point I am so scared, to the point where I could bundle you up, send you South, and say, "Enough!" But I will not. So, the point: the possibility that I wandered into the wild, blinding my eyes with foolish smiles and fleeting cries, to touch the soft ground I found cold. A light snow had fallen and I was cold. And so lit a match - the fire revealing a foggy dense forest that said, "hi." "hi. I'm holding on for dear life." to which the forest replied, "I'll hold you for dear life." © 2012 ang03207Author's Note
